KZ1000J2 Left side oil leak

I have an oil leak on the left side under the sprocket cover. It's enough to leave drips on the ground. It's hitting the exhaust. Question is where is most likely place its coming from? Clutch rod? I know chain needs some lube but that fact helps see whats oily. You can also see some on the bolts of the case.
Thanks,

First you have to do a good cleaning / degreasing to get better locate the source
of your leaking area. Remove the front sprocket to check the output shaft seal.
